My last bottle. Shows super-mellifluous, creamy apricots and peaches. Nicely poised acids and sugars. Not as much petroleum as I remember. Still holding up well - no rush to drink.

Lovely hay-yellow colour with nose of petrol, dried peaches and apricots. Zero spritz. Initially tasted of fresh apple but with 1hr of air there are lovely honey entry notes and the taste is more of peach, apricot and bees wax followed by a cutting acidity that draws you back for another sip - despite the rich creamy sweetness. This isn't as viscous as I read in previous CT notes and I plan on enjoying it with savoury food/snacks at the moment. This is drinking well with 30-60mins of air but I believe this will only improve further to 2025 and drink to 2040 (when it will probably pair more easily with meals). Great value, I'll be buying more cases. 92+pts.

Petrol-soaked peaches, apricot and slate on nose and palate. Lovely sweetness. Creamy. Drinking well now - perhaps a little forward for its age as others have said. Great QPR - heartening to know that nice auslesen are available for reasonable money.

Rich, unctuous and viscous. Notes of spice with hints of petrol. Feels older compared with how Prum wines usually age, but very good now regardless. If you have these don't plan on long aging.

Agree w note from Winestrategies. Top of cork under tight fitting capsule had mold - but wine was not effected. Glad I didn't wait longer.
